While Gareth was announcing his grand plan at the hospital, Kaze was walking out of the city council with the professor, Sam Whiteman. “Professor, thank you for the report on the briefing. It’s great. I noticed everyone isn’t that resistant about taking down the private hospitals anymore.” Kaze planned to shut down the private hospitals under Lee Investment. Before the storm that flooded the city, Kaze had given Samson the ultimatum but was ignored. He continued to spread rumors and fanned the flames about Kaze. Even Trent had been loud about his stance against Kaze. In the past few days, the entire medical field started to object to the idea of taking down the private hospitals, causing much dissonance among the investors and doctors. With Kaze’s power and reputation in the city council, he could do it by force and no one could stop him. However, since he was the mayor, he could not do things like a tyrant because it would only disrupt the order of the city. Therefor
“My master said if you agree, he will owe you one and you can name your price—money, power, women, anything.” Nevan even bowed and gestured an invitation to the professor.He assumed Sam became a doctor for fame and wealth, especially a doctor of his rank. The man could not have rejected his master’s offer. “Gareth Hornberg?” Sam frowned. “Your juniors’ legs were broken by Kaze Lee, am I right?” He got an overview of Kaze’s conflict with Gareth and he knew the four titans had their legs broken. “Professor, I know you were close with Kaze Lee, and you even endorsed one of his marketing campaigns, am I right?” Nevan looked slightly troubled. Sam refused to comply, which was the exact situation that Nevan wanted to avoid. He continued, “Professor, I think you should know what happened between my master and Kaze Lee. “My master is willing to take a step back and turn a blind eye to your relationship with Kaze Lee, but please do not mention his name in front of my maste
The passengers watched as Nevan and his men “escorted” Sam into the car. They did not realize Sam was being abducted. Sam dared not resist either. He was too old and weak to oppose Nevan and his men who were obviously trained in martial arts. Soon, the motorcade left the airport and left for Lilyrose Prime Hospital. Sam was brought to Gareth. “I believe you are Sam Whiteman. I want you to treat my disciples. If they can’t recover, you will end up the same as them.” Gareth had learned about Sam’s stubbornness from Nevan. Therefore, the moment they met, Gareth spoke in his fiercest tone and threatened Sam to treat the four titans. Sam was upset and furious. As the best doctor in the country, many powerful people sought his service and most of them were more reputable and powerful than Gareth. All of them, though, respected him and treated him like a human being. Gareth, however, showed no respect and treated him like a servant or someone inferior. The rudeness was
Crack! Nevan broke the assistant’s ankle with the stomp. “Aaaargh!” The assistant dropped to the floor, twisting and twirling as he held on to his swollen ankle in pain. Gareth scoffed, “Whiteman, your assistant suffers the same injury as my disciples. Don’t you want to save him?” “Professor, don’t do it!” The assistant was in pain but he clenched his teeth and said, “Even if you help them, this man will never let you go. You must think of a way to contact Mr. Lee…” Bang! Before he could finish, Nevan kicked him in the chin, causing him to bleed even more. Professor Whiteman was furious. He shouted, “Gareth Hornberg, you bastard! You can’t do that!” “Hahaha!” Gareth cackled and said loudly, “I can do whatever I want. I am the law, I am the rule! Whiteman, you better treat my disciples and I assure you, you can walk away scot-free. “If you continue to oppose me, then I will break your assistant’s arms and legs. In short, you have three more chances to reject me b
Kaze put down the proposal and got up. “I sent the professor to the airport myself. I saw him enter before I left. Something must have happened at the airport.” Then, Caleb received a call. Moments later, Caleb’s expression turned serious. “Mr. Lee, the professor was said to be abducted at the airport apron. Based on the ground crew, a few cars bearing number plates of Sunrise City drove into the airport apron. “The passengers thought the cars were there to welcome some important figures, so that did not spark any attention.” Not every car had access to the airport apron, so it was normal for common passengers to assume as such. Kaze said coldly, “Check where the cars went and take care of the airport staff.” Someone as prestigious as Sam was abducted in broad daylight at the airport. If the news got out, it would be another stain on the city. However, Kaze was more concerned about Sam’s safety than the reputation of the city council. “I got it. The cars went to Lilyr
Gareth wore a ferocious look on his face as he was overflowing with murderous aura. Upset, Sam said, “Gareth Hornberg, you can’t disregard people’s lives because of your disciples. There are still many patients that require my attention! “Your disciples are not above my other patients! All life is equal!” Gareth might call himself the grandmaster of the martial arts world but he was no different than a thug from the underworld. Everyone who engaged with Sam’s medical skills respected him and was grateful for his presence. Yet Gareth threatened him with his assistant’s life and forbade him from treating other patients. The four titans would require at least three months to recover completely. How many patients would Sam lose in three months? He really had the urge to fight back anyhow he could. Gareth did not take Sam’s words seriously. “You’re right. Other than my disciples, everyone else can die! Stop causing any more trouble, Whiteman, you wouldn’t want your assis
Kaze shook his head and sighed. “All the private hospitals are the same. You guys are more like gangsters than security guards. “What the hell are you talking about?” The security guards narrowed their eyes and shouted at Kaze. One of them wanted to open the door. “Get out of the car…” Bang! The door opened up with a bang, sending the security guard flying. “What the fuck…” The other security guard grabbed his walkie-talkie, trying to call for help, but Kaze had already come out of the car. He waved at the security guard. “Get over here.” “I’ll kick your ass!” The security guard rolled up his sleeves to fight but before he could even form a stance, Kaze appeared in front of him and kicked him to the ground, knocking him out. Kaze patted his hands and then walked into the hospital. From afar, he saw the Maybachs stopped in front of the entrance to the building. There were five beds being wheeled out from the ambulances. Kaze believed they were the four titans
Nevan never believed Mary Sue and Syed when they said how arrogant and bold Kaze was. Now, because of one word from Kaze, Nevan’s murderous intent erupted. Kaze ignored Nevan and went over to Sam. “Professor, I’m sorry. I should have done more to protect you from these guys.” He saw the bruise on Sam’s face and furrowed his brows. “Who beat you?” “I did it. What are you going to do about it? You want to avenge the old geezer? You better worry about yourself first. You are alone, yet you dare to drag your ass here in front of me?” Nevan grinned viciously. “The four titans were careless when they fought you. You really think you were that strong?” Kaze had a frosty glance at Nevan. Nevan somehow had goosebumps when he saw the gaze. “Yeah, it’s him!” Sam said loudly. “He even broke my assistant’s ankle just to force me to treat the four titans. I have never seen someone as savage as him. Steve Lee was nothing compared to them thugs!” With Kaze around, Sam was no long
